Dedicated Server Plans Defined

Free and paid shared plans are among the most famous website hosting solutions on the marketplace. They are excellent for small-sized sites that do not necessitate a lot of system resources and do not have that many visitors, but for busy online portals with many thousands of website visitors, a more advanced platform is required. If you are searching for a dependable, avant-garde shared hosting platform that can handle even 1 000 000's of daily visits, a dedicated server is your perfect choice.

Tackle the Intense Load Generated by Your Web Sites with a Dedicated Server

With the dedicated server hosting solution, you lease an entire server whose system resources will be utilized only by your websites. Just like any personal computer, each dedicated server has one or more processors running at a given speed, a particular amount of memory, one or more hard drives, and so on. A hosting server is indeed a computer with a hardware configuration designed to cope with heavy load and some software installed on it, like a web server, PHP and MySQL software, etc., which permits the web sites hosted on it to be available on the web.

Managed Dedicated Servers Hosting Services

A dedicated server can be managed either by the hosting provider, or by the customer, on the basis of the concrete dedicated server package. In either case, the party managing the dedicated machine has access to a software tool to reboot it at any specific moment. Administration is carried out through a web hosting Control Panel tool that permits you to keep an eye on the processes running on the machine.

Operating Systems for Dedicated Servers

There are different server OSs such as Windows, FreeBSD, various Linux distributions, and so on. Particular hosting corporations provide dedicated servers using one specific OS, while others offer customers an alternative. MSSQL databases and .NET web sites demand a Windows web server, for example, and will not run on another Operating System, while PHP and HTML based websites using MySQL databases will run on any Operating System. Prior to renting a dedicated server, find out what the hosting distributor provides and what the necessities of your web site are.

Software Applications for Dedicated Servers

By default, each dedicated server comes with all the software applications needed in order to administer a website - web server software, database software (MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, etc.), PHP software, an FTP server and so on, so as soon as you get the hosting server, you can upload your files and bring the site online. Most web hosting corporations offer full root-level access, in other words you can install any software apps on the dedicated server and update any settings. Specific script-driven software platforms need server-side applications that should be pre-activated in order for them to function. A lot of shopping cart scripts, for instance, include such a precondition, and being offered complete root access to the dedicated server is decisive for building an online store. Other providers do not offer full server root access, but help the client install the needed software - this is the so-called managed hosting solution, as differentiated from the unmanaged web hosting solution, which includes complete root-level access.
